  • A more effective version of BLM would’ve called a general strike.

    You can’t just call a general strike like it’s an I Win power in a video game.

    How is BLM going to feed and pay rent for millions of strikers in this general strike? A general strike is a massive, resource intensive feat of logistics with many possible fail points that takes a long time planning to have any hope of success.

    Especially since we’ve not had a general strike in over a generation, there’s a good chance it would fail and sour the prospects of doing a general strike in the future.

    Also, BLM was a diffuse multi-regional movement with local goals and concrete demands. Defund police departments and end qualified immunity were consistent national goals.
